Cutesy Wife Sweet Like Honey: Mr. Mu's Nightly Dote!

Chapter 1026: Chapter 1068: No Sense of Security

Yan Qinghan sniffed hard, slowly lifted his head, and carefully said, ”Daddy... I’m scared...!”

Huo Junmo asked gently, ”What are you scared of?”

”I’m scared... scared that once Daddy has a vicious stepmom you won’t want me anymore, scared that Daddy will be snatched away by the vicious stepmom and never like me again! I’ve never had a mom since I was little, if even Daddy doesn’t want me anymore, I... I won’t know what to do!” Saying this, Yan Qinghan started crying sadly again.

Hearing Yan Qinghan’s words, Ling Yueyue’s anger instantly disappeared!

So, so this little thing did all that not to mess with her, and not because he had some bad intentions! It was because he’s felt insecure over and over again in his heart! Afraid she would steal away the most important person in his life!

This brat, if he’s been this scared all along, why didn’t he tell her!

Instead he kept butting heads with her every day, always joking and fooling around. She thought he didn’t care at all!

It’s undeniable that someone like her, who never had warmth from a family since childhood, simply couldn’t understand or feel this kind of emotion! But now she understood! She also knew what he was thinking! The anger she’d felt toward him just now vanished in an instant!

Seeing him cry so aggrieved, Huo Junmo’s brows knit tightly together, and he said calmly, ”Tiantian, you need to understand, Daddy getting married isn’t so that my wife can steal me away, it’s so you can have one more mom to love you! These five years, you’ve never had a mother’s love, Daddy really aches for you! All these years, Daddy hasn’t been able to find you a suitable mom. Now that I’ve found the right one, Daddy hopes you won’t be scared. No matter what happens, no matter what situation comes up, Daddy will absolutely never abandon Tiantian! Tiantian is Daddy’s life, understand?”

Yan Qinghan blinked, and asked blankly, ”Really? No matter what happens, Daddy will never stop wanting me?”

Huo Junmo smiled as he asked, ”Of course! In these five years, when has Daddy ever lied to you?”

Yan Qinghan still hesitated a little as he asked, ”Even if the stepmom gives birth to a little brother or sister, Daddy still won’t abandon me, still won’t stop liking me?”

Huo Junmo solemnly promised, ”A little brother is a little brother, a little sister is a little sister, and Tiantian is Tiantian! You are all yourselves. No matter how many younger siblings you have in the future, my love for Tiantian won’t ever waver, I will always like Tiantian best! Your place in my heart is something no one can ever replace!”

Hearing Huo Junmo’s vow, Yan Qinghan reached up to wipe away the tears at the corners of his eyes and said with a smile, ”Daddy, I believe you!”

Huo Junmo nodded in satisfaction and helped him wipe the tears that hadn’t dried on his face. ”Don’t worry, Daddy won’t let you down!”

”Mm!” Yan Qinghan nodded and said softly, ”Daddy, it’s getting late, I have to go to school now, if I wait any longer I’ll be late!”

”Okay! Daddy will take you to school!” Huo Junmo pressed his lips into a smile, held Yan Qinghan’s hand, and stood up from the sofa.

Yan Qinghan stood up, glanced at Ling Yueyue standing behind Huo Junmo, a faint blush climbing his cheeks. With his head lowered, he said shyly, ”Vicious stepmom, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have lied to you, shouldn’t have made you worry about me!”

Ling Yueyue’s heart warmed, and she couldn’t help but reach out and rub his little head, her voice gentle as she said, ”It’s alright, I’m not mad at you! Everyone makes mistakes, the most important thing is knowing you were wrong and being willing to change!”

”Thank you for not being mad at me!” Seeing Ling Yueyue being so magnanimous, Yan Qinghan felt even more embarrassed!

Thinking of the selfish things he’d just done, he really felt quite guilty, like he’d really wronged them!

Ling Yueyue narrowed her eyes in a smile. ”We’re all family, what’s with all the thank-yous! Come on, let’s go to school together, and if we end up late, let the teacher hear it from you, okay?”

”Mm!” Yan Qinghan nodded and, for the first time, took the initiative to hold Ling Yueyue’s hand.

Feeling Yan Qinghan’s small, soft, tender hand, Ling Yueyue smiled in contentment, and the family of three left hand in hand.

This time, Ling Yueyue didn’t sit in the front passenger seat, but chose to sit in the back with Tiantian! From beginning to end she held Tiantian’s hand, hoping to give him warmth and confidence!

Only after they saw Tiantian off at the kindergarten gate and watched him go inside did Ling Yueyue sit back down in the front passenger seat.

Huo Junmo drove the car toward Ling Yueyue’s school.

Ling Yueyue glanced at Huo Junmo and said hesitantly, ”Mr. Huo, maybe... maybe we shouldn’t go on our honeymoon this time! Tiantian is still so little, he feels so insecure. If we go off on our honeymoon and leave him at home alone, he’ll be scared!”

Huo Junmo didn’t even need to think, he refused outright. ”No need! He’s already five this year. As the heir to Huo Tian Group, he needs to learn independence and growth, and even more, he has to learn to shoulder certain things! If he can’t even handle something this small right now, how can I feel at ease entrusting Huo Tian Group to him in the future, how will he have the strength to carry it?”

Ling Yueyue said with heartache, ”But he’s only five! Isn’t it too cruel to have him learn all this so soon?”

Huo Junmo smiled faintly, his tone light and breezy. ”Cruel? If he doesn’t learn cruelty now, he’ll never grow up! The business world is like a killing field, sometimes more brutal than a battlefield! Without absolute mental endurance and stress resistance, you’re absolutely not suited to survive in that bloody market! Look at those companies that were once glorious but are now eliminated, which of them weren’t shining at one point? Ten years ago, Huo Tian Group was just a speck of dust in that vast marketplace, not even worth noticing. It took me ten years of fighting a bloody path to reach where we are today! If Tiantian doesn’t work hard to learn now, Huo Tian Group could very well be eliminated, even completely disappear!”

”...!” Ling Yueyue looked at Huo Junmo, the heartache in her eyes impossible to hide!

Actually, she’d already learned about much of Huo Junmo’s past from various gossip magazines and entertainment news!

Back then, Huo Tian Group had counted as a fairly large company twenty years ago! But when Huo Junmo was ten, his uncle absconded with company funds, sweeping away all of Huo Tian Group’s money, which dealt Huo Tian Group a heavy blow and left it in a long slump!

Back when Huo Junmo and his ex-wife had just gotten together, the Nan Family strongly opposed them.

But his ex-wife still disregarded everything and came to Jin City with him! The two of them worked hard together!

Gradually, they finally gave Huo Tian Group a certain scale, and it became one of the most promising companies of the time! At that time, when Huo Junmo’s ex-wife was pregnant with their first child, a car accident snatched away her life!

In the final moment of her life, his ex-wife still managed to give birth to the child! From then on, Huo Junmo threw himself into the business battlefield, and cooperated with the other four young masters, finally pushing Huo Tian Group into the top five of Jin City’s business world. Huo Junmo also became, along with Yan Qinghan, Mu Beiting, Gu Xingchen, and Xiang Qingshi, one of the Jin City Five Young Masters!
